Suggestion

The ability to declare symbol properties on TypeScript namespaces.

Use Cases

See https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/pull/42154#discussion_r376739320.

Examples

// doSomething.d.ts
import { promisify } from "util";

declare function doSomething(
	foo: any,
	onSuccessCallback: (result: string) => void,
	onErrorCallback: (reason: any) => void
);
declare namespace doSomething {
	function [promisify.custom](foo: any): Promise<string>;
}

export = doSomething;

Checklist

My suggestion meets these guidelines:

• This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
• This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
• This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
• This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, etc.)
• This feature would agree with the rest of TypeScript's Design Goals.

Esamina prima la dichiarazione di esempio in doSomething.d.ts e la discussione collegata di DefinitelyTyped; il payload non indica alcun file del compilatore né test. Il lavoro è considerato completato quando la proprietà di simbolo richiesta su un namespace viene accettata, mantenendo i vincoli di dichiarazione e di runtime indicati.
